Apple II software on 3,5 inch disks

hi,

want to run old Apple II software (mainly games) on IIgs with 3,5” drive and plenty of 800k disks to use, but no 5,25 drive. Is there any way to convert those games to DiskCopy 4.2 format and write them on 3,5” floppies? That’s my temporary plan before I get adapter for my Gotek emulator which supports Apple II format as well.
 
For games you can't. Unprotected ProDOS disks (mostly later productivity software like AppleWorks) can be converted to 3.5" with CiderPress for Windows, but it's a pain.
 
For DOS 3.3 disks, there is the DOS.MASTER software to run them off of ProDOS hard drives. Many classic Apple II games have been deprotected and converted to ProDOS friendly form by qkumba as well. These appear in the "Total Replay" package.
